Takes getting used to, but fast.

Better F2L algs when Edge is in place oriented?

Guys, as a noob I'm working on the cases where the edge is in place oriented from all angles. For these 4, they are rotationless and pretty fast but I was still wondering if there are better quicker algs with or without rotations & F & B moves.

For the second one I'd do L' U2 L U' L' U' L

Thanks for making me see it from a another angle. Teller that made me laugh! Where are you guys getting the algs from???

Those are pretty intuitive.

Ah the perils of being a noob, getting your intuitive algs from Badmephisto(One of the best!) and no realizing you can actually move the edges

Hi
Is there a good OH y-perm without F-moves?

R2 U' R' U R U' x' z' L' U' R U' R' U' r x' U

is that your main algo?

 

[kunparekh18]

Yes, I can sub-4 it pretty easily. I also do the last U turn as a kind of mix between U and R, exec is faster that way

okay thanks
ill try it

 

[ComputerGuy365]

Any good algorithms for diagonal OLL switch? Preferably one that is easy to learn or shortest moves.

Does anyone have some good N-Perms? I have horrible algs for both.

I like R' U R' F R F' R U' R' F' U F R U R' U' R (start with thumb on U) for Nb, but the wiki doesn't have any alg I like for the other N perm. You could try something like z D R' U R2 D' R D U' R' U R2 D' R U' R (from cubewhiz) or its inverse z R' U R' D R2 U' R U D' R' D R2 U' R D' (from speedcubing101). If you prefer <R,U,F> (I do), You could try R U R' U [R U R' F' R U R' U' R' F R2 U' R' U'] U' R U' R'.

 

[slinky773]

You could try R U R' U [R U R' F' R U R' U' R' F R2 U' R' U'] U' R U' R'.

I hate that one because it's so damn long. Thanks for the other algs though.

Is there any fast, good fingertrick, Jb Perm?

 

[slinky773]

Just use R U R' F' R U R' U' R' F R2 U' R' U'. You'll figure out a fingertrick. Once you do, it's super quick.

 

[blokpoi]

I've been cubing for a while now, you know. I just want an RUD one for an experiment.
